Is anyone else struggling with a diagnosed generalized anxiety disorder and trying to do NaNo? How about completely paralyzed by plot holes? I was stuck on a particular part of my novel last night so when I went to bed I made the mistake of talking about it with MY STUPID HUSBAND, hoping he would help talk me through it. Instead (completely unintentionally, I know... he doesn't quite get that NaNo is supposed to be quantity over quality) he pointed out all of my OTHER plot holes.

Now that anxiety disorder is kicking in, the same one that makes all other decisions impossible, and I'm really struggling to write a single word.

What do you do to get past it?

I rather use NaNo as escapism from my anxiety issues. A lot of my triggers are set by people and public places, so NaNo's an excuse for me to lock myself up in my flat for a month and ignore the world.

I'm exactly the same :)
